Ranji Trophy season has started. Many star players are participating in the tournament this time. Meanwhile, a batsman from Maharashtra has been banned for one match. This player is none other than Ankit Bawne. He has been given a one-match suspension for dissent. The team was informed about this decision before the Group A match of the sixth round of Ranji Trophy against Baroda in Nashik. Bawne's refusal to leave the field after being given out in the fifth-round game against Services before the white-ball season had caused a stir, even though there was strong evidence that Shubham was caught by left-arm spinner Amit Shukla. The ball bounced before Rohilla completed the catch in the slips.
What was the whole matter?
Bawne, who was the stand-in captain in that match, could not choose to review the decision as the match was only livestreamed and not televised, which meant there was no infrastructure for DRS. His refusal to leave the field led to play being stopped for about 15 minutes, after which play resumed after the intervention of match referee Amit Sharma and Maharashtra coach Sulakshan Kulkarni.
After this incident, Kulkarni strongly criticized the standards of umpiring in domestic cricket. He had said that players are fined and reprimanded, but what about proper evaluation of umpires? Why do umpires who make the same mistakes keep on umpiring and spoiling the game? When mistakes like this happen, anger is justified.
Captain Gaikwad also raised the question
Maharashtra's regular captain Ruturaj Gaikwad had also posted a replay of his dismissal. Gaikwad was playing for India A in Australia at that time. The highest run-scorer for Maharashtra this season has been Bavane, who has scored 361 runs in five matches at an average of 51.57. He has also scored one century and two half-centuries. Maharashtra are second from bottom in Group A and are out of the race for a playoff spot as they can only reach a maximum of 22 points. As per the current situation, there are already two teams in the pool – Baroda and Jammu and Kashmir – which have more points.
